Things I like: Ballin' Style

There are some things that people often know about me, such as having a ballin' sense of style (at least I think I do). I really like statement peices, such as this cat skirt or whale top or velvet leggings with a kick ass design. If I could wear all of these pieces at the same time without looking mental, I totally would. (Although I DO think that the skirt and top would look hella cute together).

A Few of My Favourite Things

I love doing A Few of My Favourite Things because it makes me feel fancy without actually having to buy anything.
The ring is my perfect engagement ring, but for now I'll just have to hope my cat buys it for me.

Just Checking In

Well hello there! I know, I know, I've been neglecting you guys. My excuse is I just moved into the house and have been spending all my free time in my lovely garden watching reruns of the Xfiles.

So here's a picture of a pug. 


I'm not even kidding that we need one of these for the pugs at my parents' pool,

Cheers!

Recipe Round up: Deserts!

I love eating food, and even though the majority of my diet is raw vegan, doesn't mean I can't enjoy I tasty raspberry cinnamon buns once in a while - which by the way, are friggen AMAZING!
Can you guess this weeks theme? RASPBERRIES! I know one is strawberry and one is citrus....but it's still got the same theme and still equally as yummy.


Raspberry Swirl Buns - So good! They are delicious, I didn't even know normal cinnamon buns could get any better!


 These citrus bars  look so good! And you can do them with grapefruit, lime, lemon, orange....hmmm!
This strawberries and cream popcorn looks amazing! After we got a popcorn make for christmas we've been making popcorn regularly...and this seems like the perfect twist I've been looking for.

I love lemon bars, so when I first saw these raspberry lemon squares I couldn't wait to try them out. AND HOLY SWEET MOSES ARE THEY AMAZING.

What's your favourite type of dessert? I'm always looking for new recipes to try out!

Cheers!

Books I'm Reading (Or Plan to Read)

So, I'm not going to lie. I just spent the last few months reading the entire series of True Blood. And I loved it! Now I want to dive into reading new books. These are the ones I have set aside to read, if I remember, I'll do a review!



So, this book was suggested by a friend. Despite it's cheerful cover, apparently it isn't so sweet! It's based in Manhattan's dark underbelly, with a surreal and shocking world has alter egos and is basically a tragic romantic comedy. Sounds like my cup of tea!





Chuck Palahnuik is one of my favourite authors! I first read Survive and it was one of the best books I've read. I'm sure this one will be too! It's based on the life of Busy Casey, one of the worlds most famous serial killers.



I'm not too sure what this book is about. The only reason I want to read it is because the trailer for the movie looks really good! It was one of Angelina Jolies indie movies she did in the 90's. (Like Hacker, I LOVE that movie!)


I am not myself these days: A Memoir , by Josh Kilmer-Purcell.
Rant: The Oral Biography of Busty Casey, by Chucl Palahniuk
Girl, Interrupted. by Susanna Kaysen,


What books are you Reading?

Things I'm loving: Coral and aqua combo

I've been really digging the colour combination of coral and aqua! Or teal or turquoise.  I'm not a pink person generally. But I love it!


These simple aqua and coral centerpieces made a beautiful statement at this bride and groom's wedding at Wildwood. #aqua #centerpiece #coral #flowers #wedding #reception
